Parenting Beyond 18 Support and Information Group Pages

As the principal of EvoLibri Consulting, I believe that building a community around transitioning our kids to adulthood is vital -- and to that end, I've been hosting presentations on related topics for the last several months. Now, I'm expanding these Parents Information Nights to Meetup members.

Please come join us, to learn new information, meet other parents, and have a little fun! All PINs start at 7 pm, offer light refreshments, include informative handouts, and are held at 719 Colorado Ave in Palo Alto. We ask that you RSVP, and that you bring a $15 donation to help cover costs.

We're about:

Starting in September, our Parents Information Night will change to a monthly parents support group called Parenting Beyond 18. This support group will meet once a month, coinciding with the first Club Neuro of the month. We'll meet at EvoLibri's office and once Club Neuro is underway, we'll walk to a nearby restaurant. It is VITAL that you RSVP if you plan on attending, and if you change your mind, to change your RSVP to no if you cannot. We make reservations at local restaurants based on RSVPs, and need to ensure good will with our local business owners! This support group is specifically targeted for parents of teens who have autistic spectrum disorders (HFA, AS, NLD, PDD-NOS), pervasive mood disorders (bipolar), attention deficit disorders, or severe learning disorders -- high functioning enough to have been at least partially mainstreamed in school, but who are not able to move out on their own without help and guidance. Occasionally, we will have special events as needed or requested. Stay tuned, and welcome to our group! Jan Johnston-Tyler, MA Neurodiversity Counselor and Mom to an Aspie son
